          Now I got challenged by a Honda.

          I get picked on by everything from Civic's to Ferrari's. I must have a target on the back of my car.

              Honda Civic sporting a coffee can. He was fast. It was a tough battle but I took him down.

              Jay, in all seriousness, I get these kinds of challenges every day. It just get's old.

                        Hey norman

                        I just saw in, I think it was hotrod mag., that the new vette ran a low 13. I think it was 13.16! They said that they were dissapointed by those #'s but called around and found out that that was an average time for the C6 because of some feature that limits your wheel spin even with the trac control off. I know it doesnt sound right. They were doing a bolt on section and I think they run it into the low 12's with a few boltons but I thought they were low 12's stock. Have you had a chance to run yours yet?

                            The blue thing eh? Doesn't look too fast to me It's gotta be tough drivin a vette as a daily driver

                            Love the formula by the way....very unique. Awesome choice of colors and flames, and I'm pretty dern picky when it comes to flames. In my mind they have to be beautiful or don't get 'em.

                            Man....i wish my garage looked like that

                              Yes, that is a mystic flame job on that car. It is a 93 Formula with a 414 stroker and direct port nitrous. Here, I'll post some pics.




                              Thomas, what you hear is true. They put in a torque management program that really limits the power and aggressively pulls timing to save the chasis. However, many have found a way around this. They just dyno'd the ATI C6 for a baseline and it pulled 355 RWHP. I may dyno mine this weekend.

                              My C6 and my Z06 feel very close. I'd say that Z has the upper RPM covered while the C6 has tons more torque. I'm getting more miles on the new one so it's starting to wake up.
